North Carolina Clinical Trials

A listing of North Carolina Clinical Trials actively recruiting patient volunteers.

Charlotte, Raleigh, Asheville, and Wilmington are the key cities of North Carolina, with the Charlotte metro area alone holding about 2.56 million residents and attracting the most tourists each year. The state's diverse economy is driven in part on very high availability of hydroelectric power, and it has 15 metropolitan areas overall. Blue Ridge Parkway and Great Smoky Mountains National Park rank as the most visited national park and public land unit, respectively, in the whole United States. The 200-mile Outer Banks make up the most popular beaches. Duke University Hospital, a renowned academic medical center, has nearly 1,000 beds.

Correlation of Molecular Markers With Response to Therapy and Breast Cancer Behavior

NCT01000883

RATIONALE: Studying samples of tumor tissue and blood from patients with cancer in the laboratory may help doctors learn more about changes that occur in DNA and identify biomarkers related to cancer. It may also help doctors predict how patients will respond to treatment. PURPOSE: This research study is looking at tissue and blood samples from women with locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer

Clinical Phenotyping Resource and Biobank Core of the Michigan O'Brien Renal Center

NCT01016613

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) affects approximately 26 million Americans and disproportionately manifests in specific race and ethnic groups. Patients burdened with CKD have significant morbidity and reduced life expectancy. In addition to excessive suffering and lost productivity, the cost of managing this epidemic has reached $40 billion annually. The recognition that CKD is a major public health problem is reflected in the fourteen objectives outlined in Healthy People 2020 to begin to address ...

The Savella Pregnancy Registry

NCT01026077

The Savella Pregnancy Registry is a US based registry designed to monitor pregnancies exposed to Savella (milnacipran HCI). This is an observational, exposure-registration and follow-up registry designed primarily to estimate the prevalence of major congenital anomalies, and secondarily to estimate the prevalence of recognized spontaneous abortions, stillbirths, induced abortions, minor congenital anomalies, and any serious adverse pregnancy outcomes among pregnancies exposed to Savella as well ...

I-SPY TRIAL: Neoadjuvant and Personalized Adaptive Novel Agents to Treat Breast Cancer

NCT01042379

The purpose of this study is to further advance the ability to practice personalized medicine by learning which new drug agents are most effective with which types of breast cancer tumors and by learning more about which early indicators of response (tumor analysis prior to surgery via magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) images along with tissue and blood samples) are predictors of treatment success.

Conditions: Breast Neoplasms, Breast Cancer, Breast Tumors, Angiosarcoma, TNBC - Triple-Negative Breast Cancer, HER2-positive Breast Cancer, HER2-negative Breast Cancer, Hormone Receptor Positive Tumor, Hormone Receptor Negative Tumor, Early-stage Breast Cancer, Locally Advanced Breast Cancer

Respiratory Virus Hospitalization Study (FLU 003 Plus)

NCT01056185

Following the sudden and unexpected emergence of influenza A(H1N1)pdm09 (2009 H1N1) virus, this observational study was initiated to estimate rates of morbidity and mortality and to examine predictors of severity among participants with 2009 H1N1 infection. In 2011, as surveillance indicated that 2009 H1N1 virus was co-circulating with other seasonal influenza A and B viruses worldwide, the protocol was expanded to include other influenza A subtypes and influenza B viruses. The current version o ...

Tissue, Blood, and Body Fluid Sample Collection From Patients With Hematologic Cancer

NCT01137643

RATIONALE: Collecting and storing samples of tissue, blood, and body fluid from patients with cancer to study in the laboratory may help the study of cancer in the future. PURPOSE: This research study is collecting and storing blood and tissue samples from patients being evaluated for hematologic cancer.

Conditions: Chronic Myeloproliferative Disorders, Leukemia, Lymphoma, Lymphoproliferative Disorder, Multiple Myeloma and Plasma Cell Neoplasm, Myelodysplastic Syndromes, Myelodysplastic/Myeloproliferative Neoplasms, Nonmalignant Neoplasm

Antiretroviral Pregnancy Registry (APR)-Risk of Birth Defects

NCT01137981

The APR began as the 'Zidovudine in pregnancy Registry' in January 1989 and became the 'Antiretroviral Pregnancy Registry' in January, 1993. The purpose of the APR is to detect any major teratogenic effects involving any of the Registry drugs when administered to pregnant HIV positive women. The Registry is intended to provide an early signal of teratogenicity associated with prenatal use of the antiretroviral drugs. The Registry collects data on prenatal exposures to antiretroviral drugs, poten ...

Study of the Effect of Innate on the Inflammatory Response to Endotoxin

NCT01143480

Background: - Innate immunity is the process by which white blood cells and other parts of the immune system sense and respond to potential infections by causing an inflammation. Researchers are interested in studying how the body responds to certain environmental factors, and whether the body s response can contribute to chronic illnesses or diseases such as asthma and certain types of cancers. Objectives: - To examine how specific genes and proteins in blood cells respond to environmental e ...

Cerebral Hemorrhage Risk in Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia

NCT01158807

This study is one of the three projects of an NIH Rare Disease Clinical Research Consortium. A "consortium" is a group of centres sharing information and resources to perform research. The consortium research focuses on brain blood vessel malformations in three different rare diseases. The focus of this specific study is on Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia (HHT). HHT is a condition characterized by blood vessel malformations, called telangiectasia and arteriovenous malformations (AVMs), occurring in ...

Multi-Center African-American Inflammatory Bowel Disease Study (MAAIS)

NCT01169194

The investigators are doing the research to discover genes that cause Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) specifically in the African American population. African Americans with or without Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis are eligible to join. If you agree to join the study, the investigators will ask for information about your health. The investigators will also ask you to give us a blood sample so that they may discover the genes that cause IBD. The blood sample may be collected at Johns Hop ...
